    Good morning all, and happy Fathers Day. I sure miss mine. Grocery pickup this morning, maybe breakfast out. Then yard cleanup, after bad storms last couple days, and continue working on kitchen cabinets, countertop.. need to widen the refrigerator space a bit. Like most things, not as easy as I thought, but can do. Wife says Lord knows you got the tools.. haha. :thumbsup:

    So do I. That is why I use quality paint and quality brushes. Cost more but makes the job easier.

    Garage is basically finished. I need to ship two small items to buyers and take a table over to another buyer on my way to the farmers market this morning,

    Happy fathers day everyone.

    I'm not a fan of painting but actually pretty good at it, agree with Tom, quality paint and good brushes are a big plus.

    Forgot to mention, last night I ran into a guy who said he was a Captain in the Navy, an E-8 :confused:, DUH, an E-8 would be a senior chief. Could tell the guy was a BS'er even before that and he seemed more like a prime candidate for a state mental hospital! :laughing:

    I find it is relaxing. You have to get into the zen movement of a peaceful dip and stroke, just the rhythm.

    Meanwhile, my tremors kick it, paint goes everywhere, including all over me.

    My wife doesn't like me painting anything.

    As ex-NAVY, Captain? E-8? I think you're spot on with the recommendation for a visit to the mental hospital!!!

    With all the tight spaces I would have to hit the area hard and make drips.

    You'd LOVE to say there is nothing in between THAT, and THIS. But you've seen the hints!

    THAT was a neglected mess....

    THIS is much better!

    And I think I hid that rain barrel hose pretty well!

    (The rain barrel is only there because that was the low spot on the roof - so it's there instead of just a down spout.) Need MORE rocks, Tom!

    Good morning everyone!!

    Great day yesterday - spent most of it laying by the pool. We had some thunderstorms later in the afternoon but they cleared and we were able to get the hot air balloon flight in. Lynn got to ride along and we had one of those rare landings where we could just wait for the balloon to come to us.

    I'm taking in a load of scrap metal and an old refrigerator to the recycling center today. Maybe cut some grass. More pool time. Life is good.
